A 69.0 kg parachutist 6.20 m/s hits the gro vertically at a speed of which brings him to a complete stop in a distance of 0.94m in (roughly half of his height). Assuming constant acceleration after his feet first touch the ground, what is the average force exerted on the parachutist by the ground? Draw a diagram (FBD) and express your answer with the appropriate units.
